Only a small percentage of the population is swimming regular throug the year. Awareness that swimming is healthy and fun<\/strong>, lack of time and fear of the water are just some of the reasons why millions of people around the planet do not swim.<\/p>\n

Here are 5 things you didn\u2019t know about swimming<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

1. Although swimming is often the first barrier for a beginner to finish the Ironman, the average time is 1 hour and 15 minutes (within 12 hours race) shows that swimming could be the easiest part of the Ironman<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

2. Swimming is not a “privilege” of\u00a0 swimmers. Today, there are swimming accessories<\/a>, such as Lift Short (increase buoyancy and\u00a0 body position in the water), a Kick Board, Paddles and even swimming watches and goggles that tell you how to swim and help you gain swimming sensibility in the water<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

3. The ideal water temperature at which a person maintains the internal body temperature during long-term swimming is 27 C<\/strong>. This is the average water temperature in indoor pools intended for recreational and professional swimming.<\/p>\n

4. Swimming does not require much flexibility<\/strong> and swimming itself is a kind of stretching exercise. Most people already have the flexibility needed to start swimming, but unfortunately also the problems with the hips, ankles, knees and spine that you guess – swimming can help!<\/p>\n

5. Neoprene swimsuits allow children and adults to extend the swimming season in open water (16-23 C). In Dalmatia (Croatia), the season begins in April and end in Noveber, while in the northern part of the Adriatic (Kvarner) is up to two months shorter. Special swimming neoprenes (Thermal<\/a>) are available on the market, which allow swimming in cold waters at a temperature of 8,5 C<\/strong> to 16 C.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
